Definition

Buy/sell spreads

The buy–sell spread is a fee to recover transaction costs incurred in relation to the purchase and sale of assets of the Fund and is used to adjust the unit price. It is an additional cost to you and is incurred when you contribute, transfer or redeem. We will use a buy–sell spread to recover transaction costs from you so that other investors are not paying for the cost of your transaction. It is not a fee paid to us.

Australian Ethical acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the country on which we work, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, and recognise and celebrate their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and thank them for protecting Country since time immemorial.
